What’s so delightful about chicken is that it absorbs any flavor of what your spicing it with, so its the perfect centerpiece of any meal. Because Im so enthusiastic about poultry, my mother got me a book of chicken crockpot recipes that is filled with over 500 different variations on slow cooker chicken. I am especially fond of combining pineapple with chicken for a wonderful sweet and exotic flavor. With this book containing over 40 recipes on how to prepare chicken and pineapple in a crockpot, I will have enough for a long time.
Tonight Im making teriyaki chicken with pineapple citrus glaze. Yum! If you love chili but are trying to stay away from beef, because its higher in fat and cholesterol, you may want to consider trying a white chicken chili recipe. The first time I heard of chicken chili, I thought it probably must taste awful. Using the same seasonings as youd find in a traditional beef recipe, you can create a chicken chili in either a mild or spicy form. My favorite chicken chili recipe turns out to be a white chili, meaning that it uses fresh yellow tomatoes, shredded chicken, chili peppers, onions, and canned white beans, plus the usual seasonings and spices that give it a smoky and rich flavor.
The only ingredient that may be difficult to find are the yellow tomatoes, since they are not always in season. You can use a rotisserie chicken to save time, or roast your own. The chicken will be tender and the flavors will mingle into one after several hours simmering in a large pot. Once you try this chicken chili recipe, you wont want to go back to beef again! Some baked chicken breast recipes can be the main dish of a wonderful and healthy meal. You can buy big bags of frozen chicken and thaw only the amount you need for each meal.
This is often the least expensive way to purchase chicken for your family. Baked chicken breasts can be flavored in a variety of ways so you can have them often without feeling as though you are eating the same thing all the time. You can season the chicken breast with pre-made marinades, homemade marinades, or dry seasonings. You can cook your dinner right away if you marinade your chicken the night before hand.
You can also season your chicken with dry seasonings like garlic or onion powder. Try seasoning your chicken with onion, garlic powder, cumin and chili powder to give it a southwestern flavor. Sprinkle this mixture on both sides of your chicken breasts and bake.
